Lars ist zweifellos ein außergewöhnlicher Lehrer! Seine bemerkenswerte Geduld und sein unermüdlicher Einsatz haben den Unterricht zu einem wahrhaftigen Genuss gemacht. In seiner Gegenwart fühlte ich mich stets wohl und konnte mich voll und ganz auf das Lernen konzentrieren. Unsere Gespräche waren nicht nur lehrreich, sondern auch äußerst anregend. Die Zeit verflog förmlich im Flug, da jede Unterrichtsstunde mit Lars ein unvergessliches Erlebnis war. Ich kann es kaum erwarten, mich erneut in seinen Unterricht zu stürzen! Mit aufrichtigem Dankbarkeit möchte ich Lars für seine unschätzbare Unterstützung bei meiner Vorbereitung auf die B1-Prüfung danken.

Lars is one of the best language teachers I have ever had. I love talking to him and 90 minutes go by so fast it seems we were only talking for 15 minutes! He is knowledgeable and open minded to learn about other cultures and something that really make a huge difference for me is that since day 1 he pushes me to speak German (even though when we started I knew 3 German words), he also speaks German as much as possible in class but he does not make it difficult to understand. Lars also asks challenging questions about the content we work through the classes so I never get a “fake feeling” of understanding. I would recommend him to anyone looking for an online language immersion, as he provides really fun beginner exercises and also interesting conversations if you are more advanced. Really really enjoy talking with him and can’t wait for our next class! Thank you so much for your patience, Lars (: !

Der Prüfungsvorbereitungskurs bei Lars war äußerst professionell und sehr zielorientiert. Ich habe nicht nur mein Deutsch verbessert, sondern auch viele hilfreiche Methoden für die Prüfung gelernt. Lars erklärt sehr klar und strukturiert, sodass man die Inhalte gut verstehen und direkt anwenden kann. Außerdem ist er sehr geduldig und nett.

I strongly recommend Lars! I wanted to brush up on my poor beginner's German before a short trip to Berlin, and couldn't have made a better choice. Lars is phenomenal: He adapts very quickly to your needs and has wide-ranging areas of interest, the topics he covers and how he teaches them are completely original and interesting, time flies by each lesson... and he's always very flexible and responsive. From the first meeting, he kept challenging me with lots of conversation, joint exercises and good homework assignments. He is also a cool dude and very funny :-) Thank you, Lars!

Lars hat mir viele hilfreiche Tipps gegeben, die in meinen bisherigen Prüfungsvorbereitungskursen nicht erwähnt wurden. Diese Hinweise waren für mich sehr wertvoll. Außerdem hat er mir alternative Redemittel vorgeschlagen, mit denen ich meine häufig verwendeten Ausdrücke ersetzen konnte, sodass meine Texte abwechslungsreicher und interessanter wurden.
